The pool area was fantastic. Except the maintenance spent the day blowing leaves around the pool and the exhaust and noise gave me headache.

Casino close and misleading by hotel name on sites
Hotel close to plaza Rosa with great pizza restaurant and other fast food chains nearby, hotel ground nice with pool and plenty of sun loungers, our room was on ground floor close to reception area, heard traffic noise at night from cars on main road, the casino is permanently closed so disappointing and misleading to call it hotel and casino hotel on both hotels.com and the best western website as the name should not include the word casino if it’s not open! Good buffet breakfast included so overall a good place to stay, we used it for 1 night as a stopping point ready to cross border to Nicaragua the next day.

A real oasis in the bustle of downtown Liberia.
The staff here are lifesavers! Stuck in Liberia due to weather, they made our stay enjoyable and greatly reduced our stress. Kudos to Evelyn and everyone else at this great property.

The property lacks maintenance, no hot water for 3 days of my 2 night stay. Had to leave to another hotel, I couldn’t deal with cold showers. There is No casino. Breakfast was great and the pool was very clean.

We stayed here our first night in Costa Rica so it was nice to have someplace that felt sort of “familiar.” The AC works GREAT!!! Breakfast was delicious. And the pool is awesome!

The breakfast was dreadful. Only the pineapple was edible. Coffee not bad. Eggs tasted strange and boring gallo pinto. Bread was awful and other parties cheap and awful. The juice was watered down. Hot dogs are disgusting, serve real food. At this price, it’s unacceptable. Shower needs updating and shampoo should be provided.
